Anyone used that Loctite stuff??

[villa_tom]

I bought some the other day as it was only 2 quid, its just sitting in the back of the van now.

Have any of you boys used it and if so is it any good?

 

[SafeGasInstall]

never used it ,what is it ?

 

[villa_tom]

Its a pipe sealant it can be used on water and gas. Its looks like dental floss. I saw it in the merchants when it first came out but it was well pricey. Saw it the other day and it was cheap so I bought some just to try.

my merchant can't get shut i can now buy 250m rolls for 2quid:bucktooth:

i use it a lot! particularly good on outside taps because if it isn't in line when you have screwed it into the backplate you can untwist it and it will remain watertight because of its fibrous nature. unlike ptfe which will leak badly
